    • Just had an email re the my breache in agreement by her rep.   I asked you yesterday if they had asked about her name in the thread being removed.   The issue they have is the Elizabeth turner and genetic pups entry on google.   they knew I did not put it up and told them so in court.  I dnt know how to post on google.   I told them I cannot remove what I did not post.  when i come back here and saw her name gone from threads title, I presumed her reps sought it.   now I get an email saying her names still on google ur breaching the agreement as it’s still on google.

    • How does one obtain the permit? The permit team number is only open between the hours of 9am to 3pm Mon - Fri. It says on the website, To obtain an additional 2 hours, the driver must pay a tariff of £3.00 + booking fees in person at our Security Hut, is that how you get the permit also, from the security hut? What a rigmaroll that would be but maybe just another step to take to try and catch people out?
    • Anotheruser0000 bear in mind that not all Judges are equally versed in the PoFA regulations. Fortunately now most of them are but sometimes a Judge from a higher Court sits in who is well experienced  in Law but not PoFA. and so they sometimes go "offkey" because their knowledge can raise a different set of arguments and solutions. It does seem particularly unfair  when the decision is so  bad . it can also be that in some situations the motorist being a lay person is not sufficiently know ledgeable to be able to counter a Judge's decisions in a way that a barrister could.
    • The argument about the date of receipt is now dead because the PCN  does not comply with the wording  of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule 4.  First reason Section 9 [2] [e]  "state that the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver and invite the keeper—(i)to pay the unpaid parking charges;" Second Reason Section 9 [2][a] "specify the vehicle, the relevant land on which it was parked and the period of parking to which the notice relates;" All your PCN does is mark the time you entered and left the car park. It does not include all the myriad things you do in between-driving into the car park, looking for a parking space-perhaps a disabled space or  parent and Child place@ getting the children or disabled person out of the car then going shopping. Coming back; loading the car with shopping [, getting the children or disabled into the car, taking the trolley back to the store; driving to the exit perhaps stopping to let vehicles/pedestrians cross in front of you etc. so subtracting the driving times from before and after parking can make quite a difference from their time to the actual period parking time. So the upshot is now that only the driver is responsible for paying the PCN and the keeper is not liable at all even if the name of the driver is never known by Nexus so well done for not appealing. You obviously want to keep it that way to make it very difficult for them to win in Court if it ever goes that far. Although your question is now moot since  the same objective has been achieved by the non compliant PCN [ie no keeper liability] just  about the only way to dispute the timing of the PCN would be if one kept the envelope and there was a discernible date stamp on it that did not match the date on the PCN. There is a new Act coming out [and it cannot come quickly enough ] and one of the things required is that parking companies will have to prove the date of sending out their PCNs. We are not the only ones who sometimes doubt the veracity of their dates particularly as the later it is sent [unlawfully] the shorter the period motorists have to benefit [?] from the reduced payment. I haven't seen it on your posts but do you know how long you are permitted to park for free?

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hello,

 

I received a sealed N1 Form a few days ago from MCOL. I don't wish to disclose too much about the claim by fear that the Claimant might read this forum.

 

I signed an order form with this trader after receiving a quote for 2 different jobs: part 1 and part 2. The cost was on the quote. Not on the order form. The terms and conditions attached by the trader only seem to cover part 2. They do not feature any breach of contract clause (although references to breach of contract are made throughout the document). Part 1 was supposed to take 1 day. Part 2 was supposed to take another day.

 

After 1h, the trader decided not to complete part 1 and buggered off. He then sent me an invoice asking for full payment of Part 1. I chose to ignore. He then sent my wife two unsealed N1 forms. Our two names were on both forms. Later, he made a claim through MCOL and we received two sealed N1 Forms: one for me, one for my wife. No Particulars of claims were attached as the claimant stated on the N1 Form they would follow. To this date I haven't received the POC. MCOL hasn't received them either.

 

This morning I emailed MCOL ccmcce.etc... with our two acknowledgements of service. I also emailed them scans of the envelopes and unsealed N1 forms asking them for their views. I have until early July to send back our defence. I wish of course to defend against the full amount of the claim.

 

A few questions for the experts on this forum:

 

- I wonder what my next step should be? Should I send a CPR 31.16 letter to the Claimant? Or a CPR Part 18? Or nothing?

- Will I receive confirmation from MCOL that I have an extra 14 days?

- Since I signed the order form, how can I close the claim against my wife - the second defendant?

- Can I use the fact that the T&Cs attached to the order do not cover for Part 1 and do not feature a breach of contract clause, or liabilities covering this claim, to defend against the full amount of the claim?

- Can I use the fact that the contractor breached the contract without "substantially performing its obligations" to defend?

- The contractor was supposed to send 5 workers and only sent 2. Can I use this for misrepresentation?

- Any other advice?

 

Thanks,

 

Peter

If there is information you require that you don't have, you can send a CPR part 18 request. This is a request for information only - depending on their responses, you can then request copies of documents. Although if this is small claim, directions will be given for disclosure later on before any hearing.

 

CPR 31.16 is a request for copies of documents - agreements, etc.

 

MCOL staff are neither qualified or permitted to provide advice on what you need to do.

 

You have 33 days from the date of issue to submit your claim.

 

Issue date + 5 for service = ?? + 14 days to acknowledge = ?? + 14 days to submit defence.

 

I would think if they have not sent their Particulars of claim, then your defence would reflect that as you do not know what claim you have to answer !

 

I am unable to answer your other questions - I am sure others will be along to advise.

 

Please note.. CPR 31.16 is incorrect - this should be CPR 31.14

No its CPR 31.14 not CPR 31.16

 

sorry.. my fault I said 31.16.

 

 

You can find a draft 31.14 request in the CAG library - link in my signature or in green at the top left of the screen.

 

What "information" would you be looking to obtain via a CPR part 18 ?

 

I have attached a draft that was for something totally different.. but you can see how it is laid out. Please remember this was drafted for a specific purpose and only the format should be used.. not the content.

In particular CPR 16 .3.1 onwards...

CPR 7.4 onwards.

 

You cant use a CPR 31.14...nothing in the particulars...I wouldnt advise a CPR 18 either...better to go along the route of failure to particularise CPR 16 and get it thrown out.

So I do nothing, and wait for the claim to be potentially thrown out? Sorry I like to double check when I'm not clear. And if I receive a POC then I go for 31.14 and nail the trader with my questions.

Paul I will go into further detail later this evening with what options are open to you...once i have digested your thread properly......

 

Acknowledge the claim for now (you have 19 days from the date on the claim ..date being day 1) and defend all for now.

The particular of claims box is empty. The Claimant crossed "attached" so the POC are to follow. The bit of verbatim on page 1 of the N1 form (i.e. under the brief detail of claim heading), I've sent you by PM. Sorry could;t figure out how to send a scan.

Still no POC received. The court says they haven't received it or processed it either. The claimant has another 4 days to send me the POC. If he doesn't what should be my next step? Embarrassed Witness statement?

If as you state it says " Particulars are to follow " you didnt have to acknowledge service until receipt of the separate particulars CPR 10 PD3 1 a...you then have 14 days to acknowledge.The claimant has 4 months to comply and serve the separate particulars.

 

As you have now acknowledged...in effect the 33 days has commenced...and as such a defence must now be submitted to avoid default judgment.You could contact the claimant and ask them serve the separate particulars as stated in their claim or discontinue their claim CPR 7.7

 

Application by defendant for service of claim form

 

CPR7.7

 

(1) Where a claim form has been issued against a defendant, but has not yet been served on him, the defendant may serve a notice on the claimant requiring him to serve the claim form or discontinue the claim within a period specified in the notice.

(2) The period specified in a notice served under paragraph (1) must be at least 14 days after service of the notice.

(3) If the claimant fails to comply with the notice, the court may, on the application of the defendant –

(a) dismiss the claim; or

(b) make any other order it thinks just.

Hi,

 

I believe that 7.7 applies when the claim hasn't been served on the defendant.

 

In my case the claim form has been served directly by the Court (registered letters) with a date of service of xxth June 2015. The Claimant has 14 days from this date to send me and the court the POC.

 

Particulars of claim

7.4

(1) Particulars of claim must –

(a) be contained in or served with the claim form; or

(b) subject to paragraph (2) be served on the defendant by the claimant within 14 days after service of the claim form.

(2) Particulars of claim must be served on the defendant no later than the latest time for serving a claim form.

 

Now let's suppose the Claimant doesn't send us the POC but tells the court it did. Then if I don't AOS and Defend, the Claimant will get a default judgement in his favour. That's why I did fill the AOS early. According to 7.4 the claimant has until a few days left to send me the POC. After that I will ask for the Claim to be struck out.

 

In the meantime, I've received an email from the court telling me that the judge was looking into the unsealed N1 Forms that the Claimant sent me. I hope that this, the missing POC, and the nature of the claimant business might be enough for the judge to see through it and struck it out.

 

Paul
